Acer Aspire 1802WSM

Acer Aspire 1802WSM
Thursday November 18, 2004
Written by Ty Pendlebury
AUD
$3499
Price at time of review.
The Acer Aspire has a lot of handy multimedia functions that help it work as a desktop replacement/media unit. One of the Aspire’s main selling points is the Arcade feature, which is a Windows Media Centre clone. A button on the notebook fascia opens Arcade, bypassing the Windows OS and enabling all media player functions: DVD, MP3 etc. It works quite well but isn’t as graphically stunning as MCE.

Asus's model may not look like the bee's knees, but if you're after features, it's worth a look

It’s not the most powerful, but its games performance and features help the Toshiba A350 stand out in the price bracket for mid-price laptops
